The bizarre pre-match method Jamie Vardy uses to wind up opposition defenders
Jamie Vardy’s latest bizarre pre-match ritual has been revealed.
The veteran forward, now 37, has shown no signs of slowing up in recent years and has already provided six goals and three assists in the Premier League this season.
Vardy’s unique methods are no secret – with his pre-match meal being a topic of interest since he broke onto the scene – but now a new one has been revealed.
According to The Telegraph, Vardy has been known to teach himself choice insults in the native language of the centre-backs marking him.
Though we’re yet to see Vardy utilise his new-found skills, there can be no doubt that the Foxes captain will be eager to show it off at the earliest opportunity.
The news should hardly come as a shock to English football fans, who will have become well aware of the way Vardy likes to troll rival players and fans alike.
As Vardy left the pitch he couldn’t help himself and decided to taunt the away support for their lack of a Premier League title.
After handing the captain’s armband to team-mate Harry Winks, Vardy took the opportunity to turn to the Spurs fans before heading off the pitch.
He first points at the Premier League badge on the sleeve of his shirt before pointing to himself and then raising one finger to indicate his title win in the 2015-16 season.
The striker then points back to the badge before aiming his finger in the direction of the Spurs fans and motioning the number zero, highlighting the fact Tottenham are still yet to win a Premier League title.
The report also claims that Vardy’s pre-match routine remains unchanged. It consists of three Red Bulls throughout the day as well as a cheese and ham omelette.
As the Foxes came out for the second period, cameras caught Vardy taking on some extra fuel in the tunnel in the form of his much-loved Red Bull, and within 12 minutes he’d headed home the equaliser.
